I\'m sure its got a few cars. The last bit of rubber came off my near side tyre just after my last attempt and ended up putting me into a spin! If it was 2 seconds earlyer I would have hit the wall for sure!!  Locks going well now, not just totaly happy with it yet but I\'m nearly there.  Do you be down in Mondello yourself?

Cheers boosted. Not the easiest of cars to slide but least they look better than anything else ;P

Heres a quick vid that a mate of mine through together from sunday down  at Mondello Park. Another fun day but got told off for running the wall  so had to back off.  Not before getting a few attempts in anyway lol  has footage of some of the other drivers too. Was a great day all round

I have alot of onboard footage from the FD so will try and get that chopped up and stuck up some time soon.

Ha haa, cheers lads, was alota fun and the bumper is well strapped on lol. Mondello is a fun track too if yous do make it over. An i wouldnt worry about needing to much experance as i have only slid that car about 10or12 times so im still an amature!!. It has a few corners all neeeding different speeds. With the standard engine i have its basicly from low second to high 3rd (if i get the momentum right) but some of them big powered Nissan boys are gettin 4th gear slids! Some go up the main straight before making 4th gear entrys in the first corner, 3rds about all i can sometime manage and thats hanging on by the skin of my teeth lol  worth a trip anyway!
 
Hopefully get a video from sunday chopped up before the end of the weekend.
